message k...

50 years later and advancing technology has got rid of the pressure
chart and given us a weather experience instead.... what's the
crosshatching, fog, rain??


.... given the synoptic situation & time of year, looks like the
predicted (or possibly actual) extent of North Sea stratus and/or
thicker Sc with convective element sufficiently deep to give snow
grains, drizzle or similar.
